Wow, this blew up! Just a quick update - gave Ahmed my blessings and sent him a free license. If in ten years Egypt becomes our sales leading country, I will let you all know.

As many of you know, I'm recovering from cancer and things are going great. Was able to run/walk my first mile today. It took me 12:46.
While this result is embarrassing, this is just a start. I post it here to hold myself accountable.

I'm on Twitter since 2009 but only became active 3 months ago.
Why? I got cancer.
First of all, I'm fine. My body is responding well to the treatment. I will be as good as new in two months. Life is awesome
Here are lessons I learned on the way and want to share with you 👇🧵

I see a bunch of indie hackers doing a "12 projects a year" kind of challenge. While an interesting exercise on its own, it looks counter-intuitive.
I would rather find one project that works and double down on it.
What's your take on this?

I haven't posted much about what my company has been doing recently. January was mostly uneventful, but sales this month are 20% higher than Jan 2022 sales.

Instead of the "end of the year sale" we gave away $50K worth of software to our existing clients.
You may think this is money lost. I think this is a great long-term investment in customer success.

Remember the viral story about Ahmed from Egypt? He used a pirated version of our software but needed my blessing due to religious implications.
There is a happy end here. Ahmed came back last week and purchased $400 upgrade to the latest version. I'm very proud of him!

To get what you want, at some point you have to start doing things that you do not want to do.
Developers need to learn marketing, introverts need to talk to people if they want to get a date etc.
What do you think?

Getting your first paying customer is an unreal feeling. Then the second one, the third.
You talk to them, understand why they buy. It helps you get 10 more, then 100.

Knowing how to code can be a disadvantage when building SaaS because founders will focus on the tech part instead of what is important.

Productivity tip: five-minute rule. Beat procrastination.
If you are stuck trying to start something like writing a new article or watching a new tutorial, make yourself do it for five minutes, and then you are free to stop.
Chances are, you will just keep going. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

A real story.
A customer disappears for a year, stops paying his invoices, then comes back.
(me): What happened? We sent you a bunch of payment reminders.
(customer): Sorry about this. I was in jail.
Everyone's struggle is different. Be kind, always.

After reading "$100M offers" book.
A potential client asks to extend the trial which we are not able to do. Instead, I offer an unconditional 30-day money-back guarantee, which we normally don't offer.
They purchased. Wish me luck! Will let you know the results in 30 days.

In late 2001 I was fired from my job. Bad economy, dotcom crash etc.
It was painful. I have lost the only income my family had. I told myself "Nobody will fire me anymore".
It took me two more years to turn my side hustle into a business. Sometimes you just need a little push.

I have a few friends who run marathons. I could never run more than 3-4 miles, ever. These days I can barely run/walk one mile.
So, what? I did a little better than the last week and it is all that matters. Keep pushing!

Working on new dashboard styles in PHPRunner/ASPRunne.NET version 10.8.
Points of interest:
- icons can be added to dashboard element headers
- "raised" look of dashboard elements
- two new styles of code snippets, check items in the bottom left corner

A potential client emailed us two weeks ago. Turned out he had three friends who also are clients. They run Skype support group helping each other with our software questions.
This group now has four PHPRunner customers. Feels like magic when your clients do your job for you!
